Ginetta: Up to speed

In November, Business Traveller got together with Ginetta cars (ginetta.com) to host a readers’ drinks evening at London Cru in Fulham, the capital’s first winery.

The event gave the Leeds-based race-car manufacturer the chance to showcase its flagship racing club.

Driver Guy Redwood was on hand to answer questions about the race series

Readers enjoyed meeting the magazine’s editorial team, as well as one another. Stories were swapped and arrangements made for future gatherings.

Attendees were given a taste of Ginetta’s racing days as well as first-hand experience of its G40 car.

Ginetta has a number of models available to buy, including the G40, the G55, the GT4 and the GT3 power plant.

It also offers packages for amateurs to obtain the Association of Racing Drivers Schools licence, allowing the holder to race at UK circuits such as Brands Hatch and Silverstone. (The combined price for the G40 and the package is £29,950 + VAT.)
